Hyatt Centric Playa del Carmen operates as two connected properties, a Beach House with direct beach access and a Downtown House set right on 5th Avenue, both within a few minutes of the ADO bus station and the town's main square. Guests can use either location's pool and dining, with two outdoor pools, a fitness center and three restaurants and bars serving American, Mexican and international menus. Rooms are air conditioned and finished with flat-screen TVs, and several categories add balconies or partial ocean views. Pet-friendly policies and daily perks such as bottled water and tequila tastings are aimed at travelers who want both a beach base and easy access to downtown nightlife.
